The business case for purchasing a further 200 New Routemasters has been reduced from 15:1 to 2:1. If it is found that the New Routemaster is actually more polluting than many other new buses, once the actual emission tests on all the new Euro 6 buses have been carried out, will you conduct and publish a further review of the business case and will you confirm whether a negative rating on such a business case stop you from going ahead with the purchase of a further 200 of the New Routemaster?

In your answer to my question 2014/3136, you state that since the recall date "there have not been any serious bus accidents in which foot brake failure has been a factor according to TfL's monitoring of investigations." Can you confirm that there have not been any VOSA inspections since the 2008 recall where they have required buses to be immediately taken off the road for inspection as they are concerned about this issue?
